all to myself

i remember now why i used to like lifting in the evenings, and even better, on the weekends. i just cannot iterate enough how much i enjoy having the gym all to myself. i mean, in the end, training is really where i step into my own realm, where i get to know myself by testing my limits, by mentally and emotionally challenging myself and stepping out of my comfort zones.

so today was no exception. i had to exercise some restraint in sticking loyal with my training program. knocking out reps of 135 went by smooth, no trouble at all. i did start a little cold, so i may feel the tightness tomorrow. otherwise, and good early evening of training.
